How social media helped us catch a thief
We often fail to fully appreciate the extraordinary links created by the vast network that is social media. We blog, we post, we comment – not realizing we are laying indelible prints of our private lives on the world’s cyber highways. Imprints that can be tracked as easily as distress flares on the ocean.
